Radon Repair offers two services for home owners. First off we can let you know if your home has a high Radon level through testing your home. Most people wait until they sell their home and a home inspection is done where a high Radon level is detected and it has to be mitigated before the sale of the house. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in America according to the EPA so why wait till you sell your house? Secondly, we offer the Mitigation for your home and that typically involved removing the Radon from under your home before it has a chance to enter. This is called Sub-Slab-Depressurization and is very affordable.

"David Rushton was extremely helpful and responsive in providing information about his services, and in scheduling the inspection. He arrived on time, and provided an extremely thorough and complete inspection, lasting several hours. He is very knowledgeable, and his inspection report was extensive and contained many photographs documenting his findings. It is possible to spend less money on an inspection, but if you want a thorough and revealing inspection, you will not be disappointed. I was also impressed by his background, training and education, and his participation at the state level with the recent move to home inspection licensing. I highly recommend Mr. Rushton for any home inspection project."

Radon Detection and Reduction questions, answered by experts

Radon detection is crucial as prolonged exposure to radon gas, a leading cause of lung cancer, poses significant health risks in residential environments.

What is radon? It’s a radioactive gas that naturally occurs in the ground, forming as uranium and thorium decay. It has no color or odor, so you don’t know if it’s seeping into your building’s foundation. Regular exposure to radon gas increases your chances of suffering from lung cancer. Radon testing measures the air inside your house for the presence of radon gas. If detected, the test will measure the severity of radon levels in your home’s air.

To determine whether you have radon in your home, you must run a test. Radon gas has no odor or color, so you won’t notice a concentration of radon. You could purchase a DIY test at a local hardware store, but it may not deliver completely trustworthy results. The best way to test and receive accurate results is to hire a local radon detection specialist.

The only way to determine if you have a radon problem in your home is to have professional testing done. You can buy DIY radon test kits, but these are sometimes inaccurate in certain temperatures and humidity levels, and they don’t paint the entire picture in terms of your radon exposure. Scheduling testing once every two to five years is best. You can also look out for the following symptoms, which, according to the American Cancer Society, are symptoms of radon exposure:

  • Shortness of breath

  • Cough

  • Tightness in the chest

  • Difficulty swallowing

  • Hoarseness

It is possible to test for radon yourself using DIY radon test kits, but these at-home test kits should never be a replacement for professional radon testing. DIY test kits can provide some information about radon exposure in your house, but your indoor temperature and humidity can affect the results, as can improper usage of the test kit. You could save yourself some money by hiring a radon professional to begin with, and when it comes to your family’s safety, hiring an experienced professional to do the testing is usually the best option.
